Bejesus holy smokes!

pubuss 23.09.2019

I mean why did I waited so many years to switch to Helix Floor!!!

I do abuse mostly cleans, sparkly Fenderish type tones and this thing does it better than I expected! It's not about the metal tones, I do not care how awesome they are. But the clean single coil things you can get out of this unit is mindboglinly good.

I can't say Helix + Headrush's 108 FRFR feels in hands and sounds to my ears anything but the same as a proper valve amp with 1x12 cab next to it. Can't feel the difference so many speak so loudly.
One thing though worth mentioning that Helix does all and weights nothing! That is always good for your back and for travel conveniance.

For those who are interested, Helix Native is nothing like Helix floor, the zero latency and matched input preamp of the floor unit completely changed the perception of Helix software to me.

Can't recommend this enough to anyone, absolutely game changer in my case. Easy to use, sounding outstandingly good, being reliable with perfect warranty service is a must nowadays!

The game changer

Tom from the block 02.07.2018

I've been real fan of all that pedalboard'n'amp stuff. But then i decided to buy Helix. And Helix changed everything.

I am lead vocalist and guitar player in cover band. We play well known songs in many different genres and styles. I was tired of buying expensive pedals. Some of them were on my pedalboard just for one song on gig. Then i made a hard decision... I bought Line6 to replace my pedalboard. I am really satisfied!

The main reason i bought this is amp modelling. There's no need to carry my tube amp on gigs anymore because amps on Helix sound even better. On Helix you will find everything you need. It takes a little time to go through all effects an test them. Each effect has many parameters to configure so you can get that perfect sound you are looking for.
Interface is so easy to use. Built my first preset in under 5 minutes.

Build quality is totally worth the price. Built like tank. Metal housing looks solid and gives you that Top class feeling.

By far there are no cons to write.

Very good, waiting to get excellent

Sami H. 14.11.2015

Like many electronic devices these days, helix also runs on a software platform. Because it is very new, there's a whole lot of bugs and improvements to wait. Good thing is that line6 is working all the time and has already released a couple of updates.

If you want to get crazy with kahillion effects the helix will run out of dsp power quite fast - but for "reasonable" basic setups it delivers muchos buenos!

The unit as a whole is very versatile - works well for so many more things than only processing guitar sounds. If you're after everything helix could be used for, I can't see any competitors. For making only guitar-sounds I'd go for something else. I think the guitarcabinets on helix are a bit dark to my taste but that is fixed via IR-support. Just load in ownhammers for a bliss!

The UI is quite fantastic. Best I've seen so far. Very fast to learn and use.

Would I recommend Helix? Deffinately yes.

Helix. Great pro peice of kit!

griller 11.02.2018

I've only had my Helix for 3 days but have set up a couple of patches and done 3 live gigs.
So far, I am blown away.
I just go into the fx return to use the power amp section of my amp. I don't want or need to use the 4 cable method as the preamp doesn't offer anything that the Helix doesn't do better.
My needs are pretty basic. I use the volume on my guitar to go from clean to crunch to lead. I use reverb and switch on delay for solos. For specific songs, I use chorus or tremolo.
The amp models respond exactly as I need them to when using the volume on my guitar.
It took about 5 minutes to work out the user interface as it is extremely intuitive. Even when using live it's really easy and quick to make changes to any setting on the fly.
It sounds amazing through the Blug but I'm seriously considering getting a Line 6 L2t frfr to use instead.
For acoustic guitar players, the Helix is also outstanding! I have loaded some third-party IRs and can't put my acoustic down. be careful its addictive!
Looking forward to a long and fun time with this beast and for me, it is the most rewarding gear purchase I've ever made.
